Portfolio overview

BERGSTROM, INC. has been granted 35 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing BERGSTROM, INC. at rank #8,982 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 15 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 20.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in B60H (ARRANGEMENTS OF HEATING, COOLING, VENTILATING OR OTHER AIR-TREATING DEVICES SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR PASSENGER OR GOODS SPACES OF VEHICLES). As a US Corporation, BERGSTROM, INC. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 42.3/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 19 grants, compared with 16 in the 2015–2019 window, a +19% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. BERGSTROM, INC.'s 20.4 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while concentration in 15 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark BERGSTROM, INC. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

Bergstrom's 35 grants land it in the top 31% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - Bergstrom ranks #8,982 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in B60H - see who else leads that technology area. B60H leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
